rs are 3-year-old Shih Tzu siblings who are deeply bonded and looking for a forever home together. Surrendered when their previous owner was no longer able to meet their needs, these two are now ready for a fresh start — and a family who will cherish them as much as they cherish each other. Though they’re littermates, their personalities beautifully complement one another. Moochie (who is dark grey and white) is the softer, shyer soul of the pair. Calm and gentle, she is happiest curled up on your lap or quietly resting by your side. She finds comfort in being close to her people. Moochie gets along with other dogs, but she appreciates polite introductions and respectful space. If another dog gets in her face too quickly, she may lift her lip or give a little growl to set boundaries — she simply prefers a slower, more thoughtful approach. With a little time, she settles in nicely. But she definitely prefers people to other dogs (except for her brother snickers who she LOVES to romp around with). Snickers (who is tan), on the other hand, is a social butterfly! Outgoing and playful, he loves to run, romp, and play with other pups — and size doesn’t faze him one bit. From tiny 10-pound friends to 65-pound buddies, Snickers is ready to make friends with them all. He adores toys, enjoys meeting new people, and brings a joyful, energetic spark wherever he goes. Both dogs are currently learning their housebreaking skills and are doing very well. Because they’re still building consistency, their ideal home would have someone home much of the time to help them continue their progress and maintain a routine. With structure and patience, they’re proving to be quick learners. Moochie and Snickers truly thrive together — Snickers helps boost Moochie’s confidence, and Moochie keeps Snickers grounded. They are a wonderful example of how two different personalities can create one perfectly matched pair. If you’re looking for double the companionship, double the love, and two sweet little shadows to share your life with, Moochie & Snickers may be the perfect addition to your family. All pets adopted from GDHS are spayed or neutered, have vaccinations brought up to date, are on heartworm preventative (dogs), FIV/FELV tested (cats) and microchipped. The Greater Derry Humane Society does not have a physical shelter, and all visits are by appointment only.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
